Market Insight
Englewood Cliffs can show strong sale-to-list performance while the success ratio moves around from year to year.
Sale/OLP reflects how closely successful listings trade to their original asking price, while the success ratio
(Sold ÷ [Sold + Withdrawn + Expired]) captures how many listings actually convert to a closing. In practice,
this means the homes that are priced and positioned correctly often sell near ask, but overall conversion can
fluctuate when inventory mix changes or when listings are priced ahead of the market and ultimately withdraw or expire.
